Caring and friendly culture
Work/Life balance is central
Colleagues are smart and passionate about what they/we do
Cons
Strategy seems to change frequently. (every 2-3 years)
Not a lot of room for advancement
Frequent "fat-cutting" rounds of optimization/"right-sizing"
Constantly hearing "we're doing the best that we can with the limited resources we have"

Thanks for your review and sharing the gift of feedback for us to help continue improving our colleague experience!
Once of the most toxic work environments I've ever worked at. Upper management tears editors down if you are not a favorite. Favorites are chosen by metrics that do not exist, and are subjective and arbitrary. Wiley is losing money because brilliant, young editors leave due to no support and toxic work environments.
Wiley Trade is essentially a hybrid publisher. Author's put a lot of money into their book -- too much. There is very very little marketing and publicity support for authors. But they brand as more than there actually is. All in all a very sad place to work and sad for authors.
